Hypothetical Ring Game - Who wins?

We have a three player ring game, let's just say 10-ball, who do you think will finish 1st, 2nd and 3rd?

Player A: This player has a perfect aiming system. It adjusts perfectly for throw, english, gravitational pull, and any other variable. He always has each shot aimed properly to pocket the ball. However this player does not have a consistent stroke, and he does always play perfect shape, and does not always play good patterns.


Player B: This player has a perfect stroke on every shot, with no variability. He shoots as straight as can possibly be. However, this player uses no aiming system, and could possibly be aiming incorrectly at any time. Also, he does not play great shape, and he does not play patterns particularly well.

Player C: This player always plays perfect shape, and his pattern play maximizes his chance to pocket the next ball. Whether or not he pockets the ball, he always achieves perfect position for the next shot. However, he has no aiming system, and his stroke is inconsistent.


Who do you think will finish 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, all else being equal?
 
Its impossible to answer just from that info but Id put my money on whoever plays with better players the most.
 
I'm afraid the comparison is flawed. No such players exist in real life. Or do they? Let me know if you fit in any of the following:

Player A: perfect pre shot routine, perfect alignment, but at the same time a bit of a moron with very bad hand/eye coordination

Player B: great hand/eye coordination, but an absolute moron, no feel for the game at all

Player C: total genius at the game, but at the same time no pre shot routine at all and no particularly good hand/eye coordination
